Jodie Williams Posted June 17, 2016 Posted June 17, 2016 Sorry if this in the wrong area, I am creating my own flyer is PS usong CS5 and when I load it for print i am advised the resolution is to low and it looks horrible very pixelated. I am at a lost on how to fix this. Do I scrap it and start again. I used the flyer measurement to creat my flyer which was 148mmx105mm A6 and left the DPI as 72, should I change this? when zoomed at 100% it looks ok. I have attched the file information.
Damien Symonds Posted June 17, 2016 Posted June 17, 2016 Oh gosh, yeah, that's MUCH too low resolution. Generally, print resolution is 300 pixels per inch. However, you should speak to the printer to confirm that - some of them differ. Also, this is very important information.
Damien Symonds Posted June 17, 2016 Posted June 17, 2016 May I see a screenshot from Photoshop, showing your design, and including the layers panel?
Jodie Williams Posted June 17, 2016 Author Posted June 17, 2016 I am was going to use vista print, lucky I don't flatten any of my work. I was hoping you wouldn't ask to see the design as it is nothing flash, just simple and i am feeling extremely nervouse and self conscious about doing this. so here goes, I have chosen to remove some information.
Damien Symonds Posted June 17, 2016 Posted June 17, 2016 Oh bummer If all three photos were Smart Objects (that is, if you'd used File>Place to put them in the design) you could have simply increased the resolution of the design and you wouldn't have needed to redo anything. Alas, you haven't done that. PLEASE read over that section of the Layers & Masks Class again.
Jodie Williams Posted June 17, 2016 Author Posted June 17, 2016 Thank you for the direction I have now got it sorted.
